thank you for your reply but I can seem to be able to attach my file

If you cannot attach a workbook to a reply, you might upload it to a cloud service such as OneDrive, Google Drive or Dropbox, and post a link to the uploaded file in a reply.

thank you for the idea

@richbois 

These are not triangles but lines with an arrow on one end.

Open the selection pane (ALT-F10).

Select a line object and delete it.

@richbois 

The triangles are arrows whose line (shaft) has length 0.

To get rid of them:

Press F5 to activate the Go To dialog.

Click Special...

Select the Objects radio button.

Click OK.

All triangles are now selected.

Press Delete.

You'll have to do this for each sheet separately.

thank you very much for the solution It does work but will it affect anything else in the spreadsheet????

[#10]

Thank you Hans this solution is also great

[#11]

No.

[#12]

Thank you all for your help
Hans's solution works good for that workbook but Detlef's solution is better for some of my other workbooks as there is other shapes and rectangles that would get deleted. I can go to just the lines items and hide them.

again thanks
Richard

You should not hide them but delete them.
